Very, very well stated. I would say that the Ayn Rand-ishness of Bioshock provided a strength, but due to the source material also a weakness and lack of depth.

But as you say in Infinite you have characters so well done and fully realized that it carries you through everything. I was also fearing that 'Bloodlines moment' when the growing battle would envelop and overtake the plot … but fortunately it didn't happen.
